Casa Querceto is a 18th century farmhouse, that is located in a dominant position on the Pratomagno mountain slopes, covered with woods and olive groves. This special place overlooks the Valdarno valley and features a majestic view of the whole Valdarno, far up to the Chianti hills.
Accommodation is provided in three apartments, in two separate but adjacent houses: they are traditional Tuscan stone houses, retaining all the characteristics of the typical country house; very large rooms, terracotta floors, pietra serena stairways, wood beamed ceilings are the original ones and the furniture is mostly hand-made and antique. Each flat has an equipped kitchen. The houses are surrounded by aromatic lavender and rosemary bushes.
The three apartments can be rented together or separately, to host any group from 2 to 16 persons!
Casa Querceto: 3 bedrooms, sleeps 6 (+2 can be added)
Querceto apartment: 1 bedroom, sleeps 2 (+2 can be added)
Casetta Corteccia: 2 bedrooms, sleeps 4
This is not a country hotel, but a old traditional farm house: staying at Casa Querceto is the real Tuscan-style experience, with its unique atmosphere! Enjoy the place, the sights, the history, the local attractions, the food and the wine at your own pace, and treat yourself to the best local products. Have a perfect relaxing break soaking up the sun in this wonderful part of the country!
Hello folks! I am Simone, a friend of the owner (mr.Graziano, a retired journalist), and I am helping him to rent his beautiful house. I am the one that will reply to your emails and welcome you here on your arrival! I will be happy to help you have a wonderful holiday in Tuscany, giving you all the informations you may need. Please do not hesitate to ask me! See you soon hopefully :)
ps: Mr.Graziano lives in the property, and in the summer me and my girlfriend too (for a continuous housekeeping). Everyone has its private apartment with separate entrance, and you will have your privacy. The swimming pool and the gardens are for your private use only.
Simone purchased this farmhouse in 1970
This is a very special place. We are 500mt asl, on the slopes of the Pratomagno mountain (also called "the paradise of hikers"), with a really stunning view overlooking the whole Valdarno valley, surrounded by oak woods and olive groves, in a wonderful setting... just imagine the silence, birds singing, the chirping of cicadas in the hot tuscan summer... enjoying all this on the shady terrace of a real ancient farmhouse, where you can smell the typical scent of the houses of this kind, the chestnut wood beams on the roof, the stone walls heated by the sun, of rosemary and lavender bushes, visit the old cellar where the old stone olive mill is yet...
The highlight of the place is its position: it is "on its own" but at the same time you can go everywhere in a while: the nice and tiny Castelfranco di Sopra is just 4 km away, the big towns of Valdarno (San Giovanni, Montevarchi, Figline) and the A1 motorway toll at a 10'-15' drive!
Florence is just 45', Arezzo 30' and Siena 1 hour. Staying here will allow you to choose every day between a complete relax and visiting the best of Tuscany very easily.
